These limited-edition Baby Star Ramen sneakers by Reebok are only sold in Japan

   The nostalgic crunchy noodle snack has inspired a pair of retro cool sneakers by Atmos and Reebox. From sleek sneakers crafted with silk kimono to upcycled kicks made from Hiroshima’s paper cranes, Japan offers some of the coolest sneakers in the world. If you’re on the hunt for another rare find, you’ll want to add this new pair of Reebok shoes to your wish list.

As an ode to the nostalgic snack, the shoes incorporate fun details in the design, the two mascots Bei-chan and Hoshino-kun.

Bei-chan is the snack's former mascot while Hoshino-kun is the current one.

There’s also a tasteful addition of the noodles printed on the outside of the shoes.

Take a peek inside and you’ll find that the entire insole features Baby Star Ramen. It looks as if the noodles have been poured into the shoe. 

Another cheeky touch is that the Reebok logo has been renamed to ‘Ramen’and we are here for it.

The sneakers, which retail at ¥13,200,($96) will only be available in Japan.  Or can be purchased  through an online lottery system between Monday August 29 and Friday September 2. You can also find them at the Atmos online store Saturday, September 3.

Hi Again from Nevada. Today WonderWoman took me to Hemenway Park in Boulder City where you can see wildlife. The Rocky Mountain Sheep are so used to people that they often come down from the hills to graze on the green manicured lawns of this city park.

 

We took lunch to eat while there ...

 

 

But we went to see the big horn sheep ...

 

 

which come down from the hills to graze

 

 

Big buses on their way to Hoover Dam, stop by to see if the sheep are out? But neither we or the buses saw them today.

 

 

 

We will go again another day. We drove around Lake Mead and had a great time. 

 

   

Superman was working during the day, but after he said we were going to eat at ...

and we ordered a crazy mount of food, 

 

(Think Kill Bill 2)

 

we didn't finish, but I did bring home food from my bento box.

"Burning my stomach" sushi

  

   

Now home, Superman and WonderWoman are packing for tomorrow.
